Easter weekend.


 Easter Sunday was a fantastic family day, daughter came for lunch with her hubby, Will, George and Molly, my brother was still here, we were outside most of the day. 
 We had a lovely egg hunt, Will loves looking for eggs and other treats, we had some for George to find, and a couple for Molly, every child was happy. Loads of garden games after lunch, it was a really sunny and warm, perfect in every way. 

Saturday was another lovely day, we were having a little celebration, hubby and brother walked to our local glazing shop to cost up the pane of glass for the greenhouse, they were told it would have to be ordered in, they don't stock 3mm glass, but hang on, we had one piece of glass ordered and never collected, what size do you need. Well I never it's just the size you need, we will let you have it for £15, the same toughened glass from the greenhouse company was on sale for £50 plus postage, so we celebrated our good luck. A couple other simple things were done around the house, my brother helping where he could, most of the time we were sat outside in the sunshine.

Lunch on Sunday was a huge leg of lamb, everyone sat around the table, Molly in her high chair, a proper family meal. Later we had a slice of my rich fruit cake, it's the same recipe as my Christmas cake. My brother drove to his daughters house on Sunday afternoon, so by 4pm, after daughters family went home, it was just hubby and I, very quiet evening. We sat and both agreed it was a wonderful day, I finished off the bottle of Prosecco, and an early night, just perfection.

Today it's just the 2 of us, sunny still, we had laundry to do, spare bed is sorted and remade, ready for our next visitor. Alarm went off at 7am, we were both already awake, so we had a lovely long slow start to the day, I have housework to do, it's amazing how much dust gets into the house. 

I hope your weekend was a fun filled as ours.
